"My Mother Told Me" lyrics

"My Mother Told Me"

My mother told me
Someday I would buy
Galleys with good oars
Sail to distant shores
Stand up on the prow
Noble barque I steer
Steady course to the haven
Hew many foe-men
Hew many foe-men

My mother told me
Someday I would buy
Galleys with good oars
Sail to distant shores
Stand up on the prow
Noble barque I steer
Steady course to the haven
Hew many foe-men
Hew many foe-men

My mother told me
Someday I would buy (buy)
Galleys with good oars
Sail to distant shores
Stand up on the prow
Noble barque I steer (steady)
Steady course to the haven
Hew many foe-men
Hew many foe-men

My mother told me
Someday I would buy (buy)
Galleys with good oars
Sail to distant shores
Stand up on the prow
Noble barque I steer (steady)
Steady course to the haven
Hew many foe-men
Hew many foe-men
